Description | This poster, designed by Ralph and Mott, promotes the London Transport (L.T.) tramways and in particular the Kingsway tram subway for travelling to north and south London. The illustration includes the tramways logo incorporated in the London Transport roundel symbol to emphasise L.T.'s branding of different areas of the company's operations. In 1931, Kingsway subway was rebuilt to accommodate double-decker trams. The old G.-type single-deckers were replaced by the E3-class that had an all-metal body, which was safer to drive through the subway. |
